Slow Cooker Mexican Burritos

This is probably the easiest way to make a great mexican burrito. It is so tasty you will wonder why you haven't thought of it before. A slow cooker is just perfect for low cost, easy cooking, but let's face it sometimes you just forget that nice big useful crockpot under your cabinet or simply can't come up with anything new besides soup or stew. So here is my simple burrito. I think it's now my favorite. You can substitute chicken or beef with this too. We just happened to have some left over pork shoulder steaks in the freezer that needed to be used up.
